SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Timeless Instants: Still Life Photographs
DESCRIPTION:Originally from Kansas City\, Tina West discovered photography while studying sculpture. She sees her photographs more as paintings\, and her still lifes have powerful cast shadows and frequent light play. Influenced by Gerhardt Richter and surrealism\, West’s images communicate a sense of being\, connecting not only the objects in the photographs\, but also the viewer and the photograph. She draws inspiration from the objects in her vast collection of unique treasures\, and she speaks to their unreserved timelessness with maturity and wonder. All of the images in this exhibit were created using instant film in a 4x5 view camera.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mr. Vignaud's Maps: Unraveling a Cartographic Mystery from the Golden Age of Dutch Cartography
DESCRIPTION:In 1922 the University of Michigan acquired the library of Henry Vignaud\, an American diplomat living in Paris\, whose extensive personal library included thousands of books\, atlases\, maps\, and other publications. Many of Vignaud's maps were extracted from broken atlases\, originally published by the illustrious Hondius and Janssonius publishing houses. Staff in the Clark Library sought to organize these fascinating maps based on their physical characteristics and similarities\, with the ultimate goal of reassembling the original atlases.\n\nThis exhibit and the accompanying online exhibit (https://www.lib.umich.edu/online-exhibits/exhibits/show/rediscoveringvignaud) feature the results of their remarkable findings\, as well as a glimpse into the history of the Golden Age of mapmaking in 17th century Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ninth Annual International Graduate Student Workshop | Armenian Childhood(s): Histories and Theories of Childhood and Youth in Armenian Studies
DESCRIPTION:For complete workshop program\, please visit: https://ii.umich.edu/asp/news-events/all-events/workshops/april-2018--armenian-childhood-s---histories-a.html\n\nIn recent years\, the study of childhood and youth has gained increasing attention that has resulted in innovative interdisciplinary scholarship. The field of Childhood Studies of the last decade has concentrated on modern childhood(s) and youth\, and has questioned the meanings that adults and governmental bodies attribute to children. For example\, universal characteristics\, such as “innocence\,” “incompetence\,” and “vulnerability\,” defining children and youth have been examined and challenged by scholars from a variety of fields\, who insist that “childhood”\, like ethnicity\, gender\, and class\, is a constructed social category. Pushing methodological boundaries to explore political\, historical\, cultural\, economic\, and social formations\, structures and contexts across time and place\, scholars have begun to consider children and youth as agents in their political and social environment rather than passive members of society. \n    \n   This workshop will initiate an inter-disciplinary conversation about Armenian childhood\, children\, and youth. The goal is to consider new perspectives\, methodologies\, and cross-disciplinary frameworks that will put Armenian Studies in conversation with Childhood Studies. We aim to bring together theoretical and methodological approaches along with empirical studies across disciplines that use childhood as a category of analysis and/or concentrate on children’s agencies and experiences in Armenian history\, politics\, society\, economy\, and culture. We see both childhood and youth as fluid categories and concepts that are subject to flexible interpretations and definitions.\n\nPhoto caption: Miss Harnack with a group of (Armenian) orphans\nCredit: Der Christliche Orient (Vol.15\, 1914)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Quaker Oats Makes a Movie: A Scrumdiddlyumptious Wonka Adventure
DESCRIPTION:​Quaker Oats forged a new path in the entertainment industry by jointly marketing consumer packaged goods and a major motion picture in 1971\, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Having never made a motion picture before\, their foray into the filmmaking industry was unexpected and unprecedented. The company saw this film as an opportunity to essentially make a feature-length commercial for their new line of Wonka candy products.\n\nStudents in Matthew Solomon's class\, SAC 355: Authorship and the Archive\, culled though hundreds of production documents related to the film to curate an exhibit that tells a little known behind-the-scenes story about one of the most beloved films.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:The Poetics of Passing: Interrogating Self-Fashioning as the Other in Zainichi Cultural Production
DESCRIPTION:Please note--this conference will be held on the Michigan State University campus\, in East Lansing. Complete conference information is available here: https://zainichistudies2018.wixsite.com/symposium\n\nTwo Days of Powerful Conversations\n\nThe symposium\, “The Poetics of Passing: Interrogating Self-Fashioning as the Other in Zainichi Cultural Production\,” seeks to illuminate “zainichi” as a locus for theorizing the notion of passing. Since Koreans and Japanese represent different ethnic groups that cannot be differentiated racially\, rethinking received notions of passing through an in-depth study of zainichi literary and visual narratives can help us further theorize hegemonic discourses on passing\, as well as the consequences\, effects\, means\, and strategies of passing (or not passing).\n\nThis two-day symposium will consist of four panels with 12 presenters\, 4 moderators\, and 8 discussants (detailed program here) together with an open discussion forum each day.\n\nCome join us!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection
DESCRIPTION:Gallery hours are 11 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday and 12–5 p.m. Sunday\; galleries are closed on Mondays.\n\nThis exhibition celebrates Gertrude Kasle (1917–2016)\, a key figure in the formation of Detroit’s contemporary art community in the 1960s and 70s. A pioneering female gallerist\, Kasle provided midwest audiences with a venue in which to experience avant-garde art from centers like New York City\, while also supporting and exhibiting regional artists. Featuring a collection of paintings\, works on paper\, and sculptures from the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement through the early twenty-first century\, 'Exercising the Eye' speaks to the relationships Kasle fostered with local\, national\, and international artists and her appreciation for artistic expression and experimentation. Critical voices from the last fifty years include Philip Guston\, Jane Hammond\, Grace Hartigan\, Jasper Johns\, Michele Oka Doner\, and Robert Rauschenberg. The exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a dynamic moment in Detroit’s cultural history and insight into Kasle’s love of looking and learning.\n\nLead support for 'Exercising the Eye: The Gertrude Kasle Collection' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Illuminated Manuscript
DESCRIPTION:Books of hours—custom-made for private devotion in the Christian faith—were a bestseller in medieval Europe. These manuscripts incorporated prayers\, hymns\, biblical stories\, and monthly calendars featuring religious feast days\, which were often supplemented by images painted in exquisite detail. Today\, books of hours are a testament to the visually rich material culture of the Middle Ages. UMMA was recently gifted a bejeweled double-sided calendar leaf for January. Executed on parchment\, the page highlights the material opulence and artistry involved in manuscript illumination. Accompanying the calendar are painted images or miniatures of the labor and characteristic activity of the month\, and Aquarius\, the zodiac sign for January\, embodied by a man collecting water from a stream. The folio’s luminous\, gilded surface\, accentuated by the use of bright colors\, was meant to transport the medieval viewer into a state of spiritual transcendence. \n\nThis work was recently gifted to UMMA by Mrs. Carrol Robertsen.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korea Cinema NOW | The Battleship Island 군함도
DESCRIPTION:A blockbuster by director   Seung-wan (Veteran 2015)\, “The Battleship Island” narrates the attempted prison break from the forced labor camp on Hashima island\, where hundreds of Koreans and Chinese were forced to mine coal for the Japanese Empire. \n\nThe main character\, Lee Kang-ok (Hwang Jung-min)\, is a bandmaster who went to Japan with his young daughter (Kim Su-an) in search for a better future that ends up being sent to the hellish island instead. \n\n“Staged on a specially constructed a 2/3-scale set of the island\, it’s an impressive display of visual technique and simulated combat as the Koreans rebel against their Japanese oppressors in an attempt to escape aboard a massive coal freighter.” \n\nPlease see the review on the Hollywood Reporter: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/review/battleship-island-1026903\n\n...and Roger Ebert: https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-battleship-island-2017

SUMMARY:Other:Saturday Sampler Tour | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. This tour will begin at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and go across the street to the University of Michigan Museum of Art. This is a rain or shine event and will take place outside! \n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/jim-cogswell-cosmogonic-tattoos/ \n\nSaturday Sampler tours are free and open to all visitors. If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this tour\, please contact the education office (734-647-4167) at least two weeks in advance. We ask for advance notice as some accommodations may require more time for the University to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Guest Lecture: Glimmerglass Festival Opera
DESCRIPTION:The Glimmerglass Festival presents BREAKING GLASS: Hyper-linking Opera and Issues. Within eight national forums and an initial 5-episode podcast series\, The Glimmerglass Festival will talk with industry professionals\, scholars\, students and patrons to further explore how an arts organization tackles social responsibility. Funding for BREAKING GLASS is provided by the Mellon Foundation and the Opera America Innovation Grant.\n\nIn this panel\, the U-M Gershwin Initiative hosts two creative teams from The Glimmerglass Festival opera company. Glimmerglass seeks to inspire conversations about race in opera. This means talking about issues that are bubbling beneath the surface of making art in the late 2000-teens. Pulling from contemporary writers and thinkers\, such as Michael Eric Dyson and Ta-Nehisi Coates among others\, we will explore whether white privilege or the traditionally white European institutional model dictate the means by which the African American\, or further\, the refugee cultural experience are theatrically absorbed. Additionally\, we explore the idea that an artist’s life work is predicated on an ‘elite system’ where the arts & sciences had the opportunity to flourish as a result of a system of oppression. These conversations will occur in a safe space\, but we want to expose the African American and refugee experiences and how the Euro-centric institution is changing to embrace a new social responsibility. Panelists will include Jeanine Tesori (composer of Blue)\, Tazewell Thompson (librettist and director of Blue)\, and Matthew Morrison (NYU)\, and U-M Professor Naomi André\, along with SMTD student performers coached by Professor Kathy Kelly.\n\nPaige Hernandez\, Stomping Grounds director and librettist\nPaige Hernandez is a multidisciplinary artist who is critically-acclaimed as a performer\, director\, choreographer and playwright. She is known for her effective fusion of theatre\, hip-hop\, dance and education. As a master teaching artist\, Hernandez has taught throughout the country to all ages and disciplines\, to date reaching approximately 10\,000 students in over 100 residencies\, workshops and performances. As a performer\, choreographer and hip-hop advocate\, her work has been seen at The Kennedy Center\, Wolf Trap\, Imagination Stage\, Lincoln Center\, Arena Stage\, Folger Theatre and Forum Theatre\, among other stages across the globe. Hernandez tours internationally with her company B-FLY ENTERTAINMENT\, promoting original works such as Liner Notes\, Havana Hop and Paige in Full: A B-girl’s Visual Mixtape. Awards include an Individual Artist Award from the Maryland State Arts council\, the Thomas Fichandler Award for exceptional promise in theater education from the Wolf Trap Institute for Early Learning and two Helen Hayes nominations for choreography and performance. Hernandez was named a “classroom hero” by the Huffington Post for her outstanding arts integration and work with STEM initiatives.\n \nJeanine Tesori\, Blue composer\nJeanine Tesori won the 2015 Tony Award for “Best Original Score” with Lisa Kron for Fun Home. She has also written Tony-nominated scores for Twelfth Night (Lincoln Center)\; Thoroughly Modern Millie (lyrics\, Dick Scanlan)\; Caroline\, or Change (lyrics\, Tony Kushner)\; and Shrek The Musical (lyrics\, David Lindsay-Abaire).
